Phosphorylation of adenosine in anoxic hepatocytes by an exchange reaction catalysed by adenosine kinase [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1993
The elevation of adenosine levels induced by anoxia in isolated rat hepatocytes has been shown to result mainly from an arrest of the recycling of the nucleoside by adenosine kinase [Bontemps, Vincent and Van den Berghe (1993) Biochem. J. 290, 671-677].

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

The impact of and changes in the oxidative status in the post-injury period following nonpenetrating traumatic brain injuries

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research
Objective In the pathogenesis of the post-injury period following nonpenetrating traumatic brain injuries (TBIs; post-TBIs), pathological metabolic changes in the oxidative status are important, as a complete understanding of their interactions can ...

Identification of functional murine mitochondrial formyl peptides and their effects on myeloid‐derived suppressor cell generation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We first identified functional murine mitochondrial N‐formyl peptides (MT‐FPs) and investigated their effects on the in vitro myeloid‐derived suppressor cell (MDSC) generation from bone marrow cells. We demonstrated that MT‐FPs acted directly on bone marrow cells to promote MDSC generation and modulated the polymorphonuclear (PMN)‐MDSC/monocyte (M ...

Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

SAM transmethylation pathway and adenosine recycling to ATP are essential for systemic regulation and immune response

open access: yeseLife
During parasitoid wasp infection, activated immune cells of Drosophila melanogaster larvae release adenosine to conserve nutrients for immune response.

Adenosine A2A-Receptor Stimulation Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Interleukin-18 Production in Monocytes

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
Adenosine inhibited interleukin (IL)-18 production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated monocytes. The action of adenosine was antagonized by an adenosine A2A-receptor (A2AR) antagonist and was mimicked by an A2AR agonist, suggesting that the ...

Homeostatic Control of Synaptic Activity by Endogenous Adenosine is Mediated by Adenosine Kinase [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2012
Extracellular adenosine, a key regulator of neuronal excitability, is metabolized by astrocyte-based enzyme adenosine kinase (ADK). We hypothesized that ADK might be an upstream regulator of adenosine-based homeostatic brain functions by simultaneously affecting several downstream pathways.

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

A complex containing SNF1-related kinase (SnRK1) and adenosine kinase in Arabidopsis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
SNF1-related kinase (SnRK1) in plants belongs to a conserved family that includes sucrose non-fermenting 1 kinase (SNF1) in yeast and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in animals.
